XRA1404
8-Bit SPI GPIO Expander with Integrated Level Shifters
February 4, 2022
Rev. 1.0.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The XRA1404 is an 8-bit GPIO expander with an SPI
interface. After power-up, the XRA1404 has internal
100K ohm pull-up resistors on each I/O pin that can
be individually enabled.
1.65V to 3.6V operating voltage
Integrated level shifters
8 General Purpose I/Os (GPIOs)
5V tolerant inputs
Maximum stand-by current of 1uA at +1.8V
SPI bus interface
In addition, the GPIOs on the XRA1404 can
individually be controlled and configured. As outputs,
the GPIOs can be outputs that are high, low or in
three-state mode. The three-state mode feature is
useful for applications where the power is removed
from the remote devices, but they may still be
connected to the GPIO expander.
■
Individually programmable inputs
As inputs, the internal pull-up resistors can be
enabled or disabled and the input polarity can be
inverted. The interrupt can be programmed for
different behaviors.
The interrupts can be
programmed to generate an interrupt on the rising
edge, falling edge or on both edges. The interrupt
can be cleared if the input changes back to its original
state or by reading the current state of the inputs.

The exposed pad at the bottom surface of the package is designed for thermal
performance. Use of a center pad on the PCB is strongly recommended for thermal conductivity as well as to provide mechanical stability of the package on the
PCB. The center pad is recommended to be solder masked defined with opening size less than or equal to the exposed thermal pad on the package bottom to
prevent solder bridging to the outer leads of the device. Thermal vias must be
connected to GND plane as the thermal pad of package is at GND potential.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
SPI bus Interface
The SPI interface consists of four lines: serial clock (SCL), chip select (CS#), slave output (SO) and slave input
(SI). The serial clock, slave output and slave input can be as fast as 26 MHz. To access the device in the SPI
mode, the CS# signal is asserted by the SPI master, then the SPI master starts toggling the SCL signal with
the appropriate transaction information. The first bit sent by the SPI master includes whether it is a read or
write transaction and the register being accessed. See Table 1 below.

REGISTER DESCRIPTION
GPIO State Register (GSR) - Read-Only
The status of P7 - P0 can be read via this register. A read will show the current state of these pins (or the
inverted state of these pins if enabled via the PIR Register). Reading this register will clear an input interrupt
(see Table 3 for complete details). Reading this register will also return the last value written to the OCR
register for any pins that are configured as outputs (ie. this is not the same as the state of the actual output pin
since the output pin can be in three-state mode). A write to this register has no effect. The MSB of this register
corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this register corresponds with P0.
2.2
Output Control Register (OCR) - Read/Write
When P7 - P0 are defined as outputs, they can be controlled by writing to this register. Reading this register
will return the last value written to it, however, this value may not be the actual state of the output pin since
these pins can be in three-state mode. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this
register corresponds with P0.
2.3
Input Polarity Inversion Register (PIR) - Read/Write
When P7 - P0 are defined as inputs, this register inverts the polarity of the input value read from the Input Port
Register. If the corresponding bit in this register is set to ’1’, the value of this bit in the GSR Register will be the
inverted value of the input pin. If the corresponding bit in this register is set to ’0’, the value of this bit in the
GSR Register will be the actual value of the input pin. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the
LSB of this register corresponds with P0.
2.4
GPIO Configuration Register (GCR) - Read/Write
This register configures the GPIOs as inputs or outputs. Upon power-up, the GPIOs are configured as inputs
by default. Setting these bits to ’0’ will enable the GPIOs as outputs. Setting these bits to ’1’ will enable the
GPIOs as inputs. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this register corresponds with
P0.
2.5
Input Internal Pull-up Enable/Disable Register (PUR) - Read/Write
This register enables/disables the internal pull-up resistors for an input. Upon power-up, the internal pull-up
resistors are disabled by default. Writing a ’1’ to these bits will enable the internal pull-up resistors. Writing a
’0’ to these bits will disable the internal pull-up resistors. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the
LSB of this register corresponds with P0.
2.6
Input Interrupt Enable Register (IER) - Read/Write
This register enables/disables the interrupts for an input. Upon power-up, the interrupts are disabled by
default. Writing a ’1’ to these bits will enable the interrupt for the corresponding input pins. See Table 3 for
complete details of the interrupt behavior for various register settings. No interrupts are generated for outputs
when GCR bit is 0. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this register corresponds with
P0.
2.7
Output Three-State Control Register (TSCR) - Read/Write
This register can enable/disable the three-state mode of an output. Writing a ’1’ to these bits will enable the
three-state mode for the corresponding output pins. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB
of this register corresponds with P0.
2.8
Input Interrupt Status Register (ISR) - Read-Only
This register reports the input pins that have generated an interrupt. See Table 3 for complete details of the
interrupt behavior for various register settings. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB of
this register corresponds with P0.

2.9
Input Rising Edge Interrupt Enable Register (REIR) - Read/Write
Writing a ’1’ to these bits will enable the corresponding input to generate an interrupt on the rising edge. See
Table 3 for complete details of the interrupt behavior for various register settings. The MSB of this register
corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this register corresponds with P0.
2.10
Input Falling Edge Interrupt Enable Register (FEIR) - Read/Write
Writing a ’1’ to these bits will enable the corresponding input to generate an interrupt on the falling edge.
Writing a ’1’ to these bits will make that input generate an interrupt on the rising edge only. See Table 3 for
complete details of the interrupt behavior for various register settings. The MSB of this register corresponds
with P7 and the LSB of this register corresponds with P0.
2.11
Input Filter Enable Register (IFR) - Read/Write
By default, the input filters are enabled (IFR = 0xFF). When the input filters are enabled, any pulse that is
greater than 1075ns will generate an interrupt (if enabled). Pulses that are less than 225ns will be filtered and
will not generate an interrupt. Pulses in between this range may or may not generate an interrupt. Writing a ’0’
to these bits will disable the input filter for the corresponding inputs. With the input filters disabled, any change
on the inputs will generate an interrupt (if enabled). See Table 3 for complete details of the interrupt behavior
for various register settings. The MSB of this register corresponds with P7 and the LSB of this register
corresponds with P0.
